Re: wvdial connects, but then ppp gets launched and crashes

Hi,

You should check if you are a member of the group dip. If 
not, make it so. You could always, as suggested, make a 
connection using pppconfig. But watch out, if you can 
make a connection using pppconfig you not ready. Check 
out the advanced options of pppconfig, there you will find 
which user to grant permission for using ppp.
And final, check the permissions of your modem device 
(ttySx). You can do so by sending an echo to the device 
or using minicom.

Kind regards,
